EQ Crash & Return to Login when Entering World

[briefs]

Hey everyone,

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction, have tried on several different occasions to get p99 up and working with no luck.

Returning player after a long break - first time installing on new PC happened on previous windows version & now again since ive upgraded to windows 10.

Fresh install, no issues getting to character select - however when I select enter world the game either freezes with the music still playing, or I am returned to the login screen after 3-4 minutes. I have tried multiple times with new characters, or existing characters on Blue. I was however able to create a new character on red and login first attempt. Have tried on both wifi and wired in with same result.

A friend was able to login in on my network with no issues.

Thanks in advance.
